A terrific companion and prequel to the new television series. Well done Mr. Mack!
I've been really enjoying the new Star Trek TV series, so I was excited to read more about Captain Georgiou and Burnham's time together on the Shenzhou, given the brief hints that we've gotten of their relationship on TV. At the least, I was hoping this would add some additional context and depth to those characters, as well as the other characters from the show. Those characters were overshadowed by the “guest stars” from the Enterprise that are either not really that interesting or characters that we already know very well.
As far as the plot goes? The a-plot felt like a rehash of Move Along Home, with Burnham and Spock trapped in an alien escape room, and the b-plot's felt uninspiring. As the first novel adventure for the Discovery characters, I felt like they deserved something more.
